4. Installing USB driver
To get the required USB driver for the CC Debugger, it is necessary to install one of the tools listed below:
SmartRF Studio www.ti.com/tool/smartrftm-studio
• •
SmartRF Flash Programmer www.ti.com/tool/flash-programmer
• •
PurePath Wireless Configurator http://www.ti.com/tool/purepath-wl-cfg
• •
Alternatively, you can download “Cebal – CCxxxx Development Tools USB Driver for Windows x86 and x64” [3] which is a standalone installer including only the device driver. After having installed the driver, connect the CC Debugger to the PC. The USB driver will be installed automatically. You can quickly check that the debugger has been associated correctly with the USB device driver by opening the Windows Device Manager. The debugger should appear as a “Cabal controlled device”.

Easy Mode
Easy Mode provides a simple user interface for packet transmission and reception. The user can select between two test modes; Packet TX and Packet RX in the bottom panel.
Quick Start
A packet TX/RX test between two devices can be started simply by selecting 'Packet TX' on one of the devices and 'Packet RX' on the other. Press start on the 'Packet RX' device first, then press start on the 'Packet TX' device to start the packet transmission.
Select Configuration
Select a configuration with the predefined protocol and packet format, data rate and frequency. Each configuration programs the connected device with a list of register values according to the configuration parameters. Make sure that the same configuration is used on both the transmitting and receiving device. Details of the selected packet format can be seen in either the 'Packet TX' or 'Packet RX' panels at the bottom of the screen.
Expert Mode
Expert Mode provides a more advanced user interface than Easy Mode. From the Expert Mode the user can change advanced RF parameters for the connected device. The expert mode includes a typical settings panel, an RF parameter panel and the following test function panels: Continuous TX, Continuous RX, Packet TX, Packet RX and RF Device Commands.
The various panels visible from Expert Mode are described in the following sections.
